EBC?? help needed

Is a 2010 M8
I'm running EGT's, Oil Pump and IC Fan split off of the power at the front harness.
The EBC flashes and dims at idle. I just went down to look over connectors, ground, worn wires and ran the sled. At 3-3.5K RPM for about 8-10 seconds; the screen would lite up normally and dim again instantly when the throttle was let off. I did this sequence about 10 times all with the same outcome. 1 time during this sequence the control box set itself back to the initial screen. The other times it had no affect on the control box.
it ran fine for about an hour today, then just switched instantly during my last pull, of roughly 20. I was dialing in the waste gate selonoid/actuator as it was over boosting.

Setup for the big draw items sounds like what BD recommends. The "dim at idle" is what i see on my buddies 2009 m8 that I set up. Not quite sure what "switched" while you were riding. The boost setting changed? If so, I can't explain why it would do that unless power dropped off when you were adjusting the settings. I have to keep his 2009 m8 up to about 3000rpm to get the ebc to stay on to adjust the settings. If you unplug the fan up front, you will probably see it stay on more predictably at idle... just not enough power at idle to keep everything happy at 12v. Should be enough power once rpms are up to keep everything happy unless stator is going bad.
 
Thanks for the input. I never lost or had anything reset. It just always goes to the start up screen instaed of showing the constant boost setting. I'll look into the stator. I'll see if BD has any ideas as well. Thanks again.
